Chapter 629 - The Restoration of the Buddha Statue

Under such an impact, the planks of the top floor compartment were quickly lifted open, revealing a gap. "Three, two, one!" With such a low roar, Conan was thrown from the gap to the top-floor compartment by Heiji Hattori.

"Did you find anything?" Below, Heiji Hattori asked.

The dark space of the "Hmm......" compartment was driven away by the glimmer of Conan's watch, and Conan's voice came from above. I seem to ...... See, we're looking for the Buddha statue. I remember, it's called Yakushi Rulai, right? ”

"Well, is the Buddha statue intact?" Heiji hurriedly asked again.

"It's not complete," Conan's feedback made the faces of Heiji and Chiba a little ugly. "Missing Baihao."

"Bai Hao? What is that? Hattori Heiji was stunned.

"Don't you know that transparent spot on the forehead?" Conan's head poked out of the gap. "Probably a hexagonal prism crystal."

"Hexagonal prism?" The abdomen was taken aback. "Is it a standard hexagonal prism made of clear crystal?"

"yes, what's wrong?" Conan noticed Heiji's anomaly.

"Wait, let me think about it," Hattori Heiji didn't answer him, but lowered his head, his eyes were quite complicated, and it took a long time before he answered. "Well, I guess...... Maybe that thing wasn't 'her thing'. ”

"You mean your first ......," Conan reacted immediately.

"Are you talking about a token of your first love?" Qian Yu asked suddenly.

"Do you know about that?" Hattori Heiji looked at Chiba in surprise. "Really...... How is it that children nowadays are so interested in this kind of thing? ”

"Uh......" Qian Yu showed a rather embarrassed expression - of course he didn't take the initiative to find out about this kind of thing, but he heard her talk about it when he was chatting with Gray Yuan the night before, and he didn't know where this little girl dug up this kind of gossip.

As for the specific content of the gossip...... It's probably that Heiji went to Kyoto to play when he was a child.,And then I met a girl he liked very much in a temple.,And then the other party dropped a crystal bead when he left.,So Heiji took this thing as a token of love.。 Some time ago, he mentioned it in an interview, and it made the news media window.

(Author: Actually, it was Jiroyoshi Suzuki's pot, the last batch of books, magazines and newspapers loaded by the Pearl Tree airship before takeoff, which contained Heiji Hattori's search for his first love.) )

"All in all," Heiji Hattori finally took a deep breath. "I'll go find a ladder, and we'll get that Buddha statue down."

……

"Well, it looks like that's it." Pressing the crystal bead into the groove on the forehead of the Buddha statue, Heiji nodded thoughtfully, and the expression on his face was slightly gloomy. "This thing is really white......"

If that's the case, you're really wasting too much time and opportunity on this. Even if that girl really saw the news she left behind, but knew that she didn't have a vain word, then she might really have to pass by that girl forever.

However, there may be another chance: if his hunch is not wrong, maybe he has one last chance to find the girl he has always wanted to see again.

"Let's take that Buddha statue back first, and then I'm going to go to Sakuraya again tomorrow morning." As if convincing himself, Hattori Heiji nodded and said.

"Do you think your first love is Miss Suzu Chiga?" Conan asked.

"I think that's it," Hattori nodded. "Her singing tone is almost the same as I remember it at the beginning, plus she is the same age, so I think it's very likely that she is her."

……

"......" Fujiwara opened his eyes slightly, but the pain in his body immediately made him let out a low moan. Uh......"

"Are you awake?" Takeda's voice rang out—he had been sitting on the edge of Fujiwara's bed, and he was the first to react.

"Where's Hotaru?" After glancing at Takeda, Fujiwara immediately looked in the opposite direction, but he didn't see the person who was supposed to be there.

"In the bed next to you," Hotaru's slightly weakened voice came through a curtain pulled up behind Takeda. "It was fine, but on the way back they noticed that I seemed to have injuries on my body. In addition, I have mild malnutrition and anemia, so they arranged for me to stay here for one night to observe, give some fluids, and accompany you by the way. ”

(In fact, Hotaru ends up telling them that Fujiwara was in a hospital room with her boyfriend who had many, many relationships with her.) )

"Maybe it's a side effect of physical exhaustion, right? Since the two of you are here...... What about Okazaki-san? Fujiwara asked again. Is it next to your bed? ”

"Yes......" Yuzhen's helpless voice also sounded. This kind of thing is too risky...... The other party is a great expert in kendo! You were almost killed by him. ”

"It's an underestimate, but there's nothing else to do." Fujiwara sighed. "According to the original plan, we only need to hold on for a little two or three minutes - I didn't think it would be too troublesome to do, but I didn't expect that Saijo Taiga to have such a high level of combat skills, and he was knocked out of the medicine and was knocked down as soon as he came up."

"But if he hadn't taken drugs, he wouldn't have been able to do it, would he?" Hotaru asked rhetorically. "There's such a two-sided side to this kind of thing, at least we won the bet, didn't we?"

"That's right...... Fujiwara said this, suddenly remembering something. Takeda, you two aren't planning to spend the night here, are you? ”

"Huh?" Takeda was stunned for a moment. "Uh...... Yuma may go back, but I'll probably stay......"

"There's no need, it's not very comfortable to sleep here." Hotaru's voice came. "If it's just Fujiwara here, I can do whatever I want, but I'll have a lot of unnecessary concerns if you're here."

“!!!” Takeda's face turned red all of a sudden, and Fujiwara, who saw this, immediately guessed that Yuma on Hotaru's side probably had the same expression.

Well...... Maybe Hotaru is thinking now that she may have seen Takeda's red face, right?

"That's that...... So let's go now? Takeda stammered.

"No problem," Hotaru said in a smiling voice. "Also, please open the curtain, Fujiwara and I have already been honest with each other, and there is no need to shy away from anything."

……

When Takeda pulled Yuma and left in a hurry, Hotaru suddenly asked a question.

"You look like this, can you still go to the Spikeshima?"

"I think it should be about ten days later, right? Probably yes, why do you ask this? ”

"It's a rare opportunity, and if you can't go, it's a pity." Hotaru's tone seemed a little hesitant. "By the way, let me ask a question."

"Huh?" Fujiwara seemed to realize that the next question would be important, and tilted his head slightly to look at Hotaru.

"If there is no conflict of interest with your friends, will you assist me in my work?"

"......" Fujiwara frowned slightly—but not because the question was difficult to answer.

"No problem, but ...... What exactly are you up against? ”
